IMPROVEMENT IN WATER-ELEVATORS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 127,745, dated June 11,1872,

SPECIFICATION.

My invention relates to a novel arrangement of a sliding delivery-troughwith a wellcurb, as hereinafter described.

Description of the Accompanying Drawing.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a plan embodying my invention, andrepresents the curb with one of its sides removed, showing the interiorarrangement of the different parts of my water-elevator as they are whenin a working combination. Fig. 2 is a cross-section of thedelivery-trough, composed of a spout, i, and an enlarged part designedto cover the opening J. The spout is made of sufficient length toprotrude through the side of the curb, and when the bucket is to belowered the spout is drawn out so as to uncover opening J. So

soon as the bucket is again elevated the trough is pushed in and thebucket lowered to allow it to rest in the trough and occasion thedelivery of its contents by means of the valve 9.

By this arrangement tilting or lateral movement of the bucket isobviated; the troughspout does not protrude when water is not beingdrawn, and no filth can get access to the well.

To operate the bucket, I employ a strap, F, passing over pulleyE andwinding around a Windlass, B, which is locked by a lever, Gr.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

The trough D provided with spout i, and arranged to slide in and out ofthe curb to operate in conjunction with the bucket'O and opening J, asset forth.
